Abstract

A bipolar transistor of the present invention comprises a collector layer made of an n-type semiconductor and an emitter layer made of an n-type semiconductor provided on this collector layer. A gate layer for injecting p-type carriers (holes) into the emitter layer is provided on the emitter layer. A p-type carrier retaining layer is formed between the collector layer and the emitter layer. The p-type carrier retaining layer temporarily retains the p-type carriers that are injected from the gate layer into the emitter layer and diffused in the emitter layer and reach the p-type carrier retaining layer. The bipolar transistor has a structure whose performance is not influenced by sheet resistance of the base layer, and is able to exhibit a high current gain even in a high-frequency region.

Description

[0001] This formal application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(a) to Patent Applications P2003-399025 and P2004-323844 filed in Japan on November 28, 2003 and November 8, 2004, respectively, which are incorporated by reference It is incorporated herein in its entirety. technical field [0002] The present invention relates to a bipolar transistor, and more particularly, to a bipolar transistor including a compound semiconductor of a group III element and nitrogen (N) as a material. Background technique [0003] As a type of bipolar transistor containing compound semiconductors of Group III elements and nitrogen (N) as materials, HBT (Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor) made of gallium nitride / aluminum gallium nitride (GaN / AlGaN) material is Well-known (refer to JP2002-368005A). [0004] The HBT on the upper surface of the semi-insulating substrate has n + - gallium nitride (GaN) sub-collector layer (thickness: ~1000nm, concentration of silicon (Si) as n-type dopant: ~6...
